Light deprivation?
Going from a t-5 to led definitely lowers the type of light spectrum.
Take in the fact I’m a soil, HPS, CMH kind of guy.
Do you have the lights as close as is feasible to the plants?

When I start new clones in LED I keep them as far as possible from the light "til they get used to it. Sort of like putting seedlings outside in semi-shade to start the hardening off.

Sorry I don't know why I didn't post it. Yeah it looks like light shock. If your LEDs are dimmable, dim them almost nothing and then ramp them up of a series of days. A handy tool to have Is a cheap luxx meter. It's not as accurate as a para meter but it's way less expensive and it can give you a good idea on the differences in light intensity. It takes a little bit to recover, but they will.
